Topical Tropes

These are what we call the 'YMMV items.' Things that some people find in this work. We call them 'your mileage might vary' because not everyone sees these things in the same way. This starts discussions in the trope lists, a thing we don't want. Please use the discussion page if you'd like to discuss any of these items.

Covered Up: A country-specific version. "Yes I Will" was a Top Ten hit for the band in the UK, but American fans are more familiar with the cover version by The Monkees (under the title "I'll Be True to You").

First and Foremost: "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother" has been recorded by many artists, but people continue to associate the song with the Hollies.

Germans Love David Hasselhoff: The band had a good amount of hits at home, but went on to have a surprising number of number-one hits in utterly random countries such as Switzerland, Malaysia, and Italy.

Growing the Beard: For Certain Because was the first album to consist of all original material, and was a huge leap forward in defining the sound that the group would become known for.
